(Hypothetical) If Ron Paul wins the GOP nomination in 2012, who should be his VP

Please all sign Dennis Kucinich's petition . . . .

Establishing Health Care As A Civil Right

Yeah, we'll all get right on that.

Sounds to me that Dennis Kucinich is a crazy socialist . . .
but does anybuddy know how he is going to vote on NObamaCare ?

I'll guess you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

Kucinich doesn't seem to know what he is talking about. He was for the auto bailouts. he wants a million people to retire and take social security benefits early so supposedly 1 million jobs can be created. He also wants a public central bank controlled by the congress. He is for high tariffs, an estate tax, farm subsidies, gun bans, the UN and a plethora of bad things that would alienate right wing and independent voters. If he actually attained any kind of real power, our country would become like Venezuela.
 
I like Walter Williams personally. If the mood of the country is still focused on fiscal issues then I would like Gary Johnson. If the mood of the country has focused back on social issues, then I think it would be a poor choice politically.

go "bucketlist" and take Walter Williams....or one of the mises fellows...the judge would be great too.
 
Your right - so fucking educate me and explain it.
As I said, it was just a guess. But it looks like I was right.

If [Kucinich] actually attained any kind of real power, our country would become like Venezuela.
If Kucinich was president you wouldn't be thinking of the presidency as a dictatorship. I don't think you realize what concerns must be addressed before you start to think in terms of policy, but the way you responded should give you a hint.
 
Considering a VP pretty much has no responsibility/power. I would base it on who would be the most helpful to Paul while he was in office. I think Napolitano would be a good call. If not him then I'd suggest Michael Badnarik then Chuck Baldwin then Schiff or Gary Johnson. I think his best shot to win the Presidency would be with Napolitano or Johnson or maybe even Badnarik. (I can't believe I forgot Ventura!!! I'd probably place him on the ladder end of the list)

Chuck Baldwin can't keep religion out of his politics, but more disturbing to me considering he is a pastor, he can't keep politics out of his religion. I'd give him ambassadorship to the Vatican or something.
 
The smartest move for Ron Paul is to find a general or admiral who backs his foreign policy. This is the pre-eminent area where Obama can outmanouver him and appear as a "centrist" or where a third party rebellion can rise up among neo-cons on hawkism. It also gives disciplined credibility to the ticket. Maybe Admiral William Fallon?

Alternatively, although less seductive electorally, Gary Johnson would be an effective pick. Works to more aggressively target liberals and progressives, also targets New Mexico as a battleground state, and gives an executive's experience to the ticket.
 
Ventura.

Judge Napolitano for AG


I kinda like that. I like Jesse even tho I don't agree with him 100%, he's got the balls to say what needs to be said and call people on their bullshit. Plus he'd be a great assassination insurance.

But I don't know if it would be a good political move.
